Raffles are good, but only if you have something good to give away. Example: 330 used to be sponsored by DirecTV and they would donate satellite tv systems with a year subscription. That was a good raffle, because people were willing to buy thirty and forty dollars worth of tickets. Even people on the team and their families were buying tickets. Plus, since the goods to be raffled were donated, there was almost no out of pocket expenses.
My personal favorite fundraiser when i was on 330 was our garage sales. We would ask people from the school and from the community to donate goods, and we consistently made over a thousand dollars whenever we would have a garage sale. But after a couple years of having multiple garage sales, you begin to run out of stuff to sell.
